Ozempic 0.5mg Pre-Filled Pen 1.5ml

Ozempic 0.5 mg Pre-Filled Pen is a prescription injectable medicine containing semaglutide, a glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist designed to help adults with type 2 diabetes manage their blood sugar levels more effectively. It is used once weekly alongside a balanced diet and regular exercise to support improved glycemic control. Ozempic works by mimicking the action of a natural hormone that stimulates insulin release when blood sugar is high, slows stomach emptying, and reduces the amount of sugar produced by the liver. Clinicians typically start patients on a low dose to help the body adjust, and after a period of weeks, maintain the 0.5 mg weekly dose to provide stable blood glucose control. The medication is administered under the skin (subcutaneously) using the pre-filled pen device, which delivers a measured dose of semaglutide. Injection sites can include the abdomen, thigh, or upper arm, and should be rotated with each dose to minimize irritation. Patients should be trained by a healthcare professional in proper injection technique before first use. Regular monitoring by a clinician including blood glucose tests and overall diabetes care helps ensure the best results with Ozempic.
